Can't understand Ferrari strategy.(Lap 50) At this rate Kimi will catch Seb, Ric might catch him too.

ferrari screwing themself over and over like season after season

race is over now with 20 laps to go or even this championship lol

agree .. another poor strategy from ferrari again & again

I think this race clearly the Ferrari is the fastest car(in the hands of Kimi at least). Ham was kinda given the win by Ferrari. Consolation is the winner of this race may not win the championship.

Dam the merc kissing ferrari continues again

lol bottas playing bumper cars today

and surely its "racing incident" lol

Lol, Toto Wolff praised Bottas played a great wingman role, but Bottas was hurt and not wanted this role actually... Internal politic?

Its ok to be no 2 or wingman, like what Ferrari are known to be... But Toto being a hypocrite always saying that their driver are free to race all the time and even before the start if this race.

Btw, pity horner when he actually doing some invited commentary live when seeing his car crashed into by bottas.

Very boring race apart from the incidents with Bottas. So boring that I dozed off a few times.

Last race Seb screwed up and now his team shoot themselves in the foot with poor pit stops for both drivers. I think this is it, Ham is already about 1 race ahead in the points and will take some disaster from them for Seb to catch up. If Ham does win again this year, it's like Seb & Ferrari are the one who 'gifted' him the title by always messing up. Maybe just the team title is more realistic for Ferrari now.

5 podium in a row for iceman

good run but where is the win?

Play wingman what 2 do

1 no0b question- what is the difference between F1 and F2?

kimi last win is australia 2013

alonso last win spain 2013

both ol veteren last win is 2013

At least kimi got podium. Alonso only famous for his radio message. Haha

Coz Kimi is not as fast anymore, that's why he's just a wing man now and cannot get anymore wins despite having a winning car.
For Alonso, at least it's not the driver but the car. If he's in a Ferrari or any other winning cars, surely he would have more wins.

He kept making the wrong decision and influence the team to make wrong decisions too.

If RB + honda successful, he surely ashamed if his comments.

Going 2 mclaren was his biggest mistake

Now hamilton leap ahead of him by double

Well it's obvious that McLaren also doesn't have a strong chassis as they claimed to be. So RB winning with Honda is not really just because of Honda but also because RB builds better chassis. McLaren itself has been going downhill before Alonso joins. But yeah, Alonso keeps ending in the wrong team all the time. If he was more patient and stayed with Ferrari, he obviously would have been more wins, maybe have won a title.

His biggest mistake was fighting with Lewis & Ron during his first year at McLaren, trying to sabotage Lewis in Hungary during qualifying. If he did not do that, he would not be penalized in that race and he would have been champion at the end of 2007. Then his 2nd biggest mistake was leaving Ferrari for McLaren fr the 2nd time.

The problem he has is that he cannot help improving team morale and give input for developing a car. Last year he kept saying that mclaren has the beat chassis which boasted mclaren ego and didn't further developed the car, but blame honda.

In McLaren case, I think it's also largely due to arrogance of McLaren team, typical of a team which was so successful in the past. They just didn't want to accept that they are not as good anymore in developing the chassis so try to put Honda as the scape goat which partly true also (nobody denies that Honda that time was also very underpowered). It's simply Honda did not design well to begin with and develop fast enough while McLaren (and also Alonso) do not have enough patient to wait for more than 3 years for Honda to come good. McLaren is partially to blame also for not having a better chassis. I think Alonso's capability to outdrive a racing car to some extent masked McLaren chassis weaknesses. It's just not meant to be I guess, and it can be RB's luck if they win races next year as they bear the fruit of Honda's and McLaren's pain & sacrifices.

To me it's just a pity that a team as glorious as McLaren and a racer as outstanding as Alonso are languishing at the back, therefore risking to loose Alonso to other racing series.
